Catching up

Have you missed me? I have been missing some of you! I have been posting again. Although, they are idol related and not all of you read those. ;)
We have all been doing pretty good. I registered Nicky for kindergarten at the beginning of the month. It just doesn't seem like he can be old enough for that yet. We also signed them both up nfor karate. The place Ned goes to isn't nearly and large or organized as where
firesign10 goes. It is nice though. Ned has been going for nearly 5 years. He received his black belt last month. I am thinking of joining the beginning of May.
I am writing this on a piece of paper, on a flight to Tucson, Arizona. We are going to be spending a week hanging out with my extended family. The kids are excited to see their great-grandma.
I have been trying to make a lot of changes the last several months. Around the beginning of October, I asked Ned to start exercising at home with me. To date he has lost nearly 30 lbs. and I have lost 15. I have had a few setbacks. I was just getting into a groove when I was diagnosed with diverticulitis at Thanksgiving. That knocked me out for a couple of weeks. At Christmas I strained a ligament in my right knee. That took me out most of January and February.
March brought a new day and a new desire to get crackin'. On the 9th of that month, a cyst that I had on my back between my shoulder blades developed an infection. It was very painful, for three solid weeks. The first antibiotic helped some, but the next one did nothing. I saw a general surgeon an dhe cut the cyst out right then and there. I wasn't expecting that. It's going to be a lovely scar on my back. I had a 1 1/2 inch incision side to side with one little stitch in the middle. He didn't want to close it up and lock any infection inside.
My mammogram was good thought!!! Mostly, everything has been fairly minor, just one after another. That doesn't help my pocket book either.
(turbulence pretty much ended my writing at this point)
We have had a fabulously busy two days so far in Arizona. We arrived late Friday evening. Saturday was my grandma's 82nd birthday. We had nearly 40 people over for a barbeque at the cabana pool in her complex. It was really lovely. I will try to catch up again soon! I have several pictures I really have to share with you.
